She is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in the Faculty of Architecture and plans to graduate in the Spring of 2021. Nicole aspires to become one of the first Inuit architects. She is focused on the design realities communities face within rural and non-rural areas and believes the built environment is a key factor in socio-economic agency. She is committed to indigenous initiatives and well-being as well as sustainable building practices.
